You can't speak of the essence of guitar music without hearing the 1966 masterpiece Jack Orion.\n\n\n\nReleased in 1966, Bert Jansch's third album Jack Orion (Transatlantic) is hailed as a pivotal work born from the underground currents of London folk at the time. Having established his presence with original compositions on previous albums, Jansch deliberately constructed this album entirely from traditional folk songs. He turned the age of the material to his advantage, renewing the very expression of the guitar itself.The defining feature is the collaboration with his longtime ally John Renbourn, whose \"folk baroque\" touch elevates the folk guitar from mere accompaniment to an art of duet where melody and counterpoint contend, etched throughout the entire album. Particularly on \"Blackwaterside,\" his distinctive sound and phrasing using drop D tuning proved decisive. Its influence later extended to Jimmy Page's circle, leading to renewed appreciation from the rock world and cementing its status as a guitarist's bible. Songs like \"The Waggoner's Lad\" and \"Nottamun Town,\" which translate Anne Briggs' traditional interpretations into Jansch's idiom, are prime examples of how he didn't treat folk songs as mere research material. Instead, he infused them with a tension and propulsive energy that resonates with modern ears. Bill Leader handled the recording, characterized by a flat sound image capturing even the squeak of strings and the nuance of fingertips up close, moving away from hi-fi. This crystallization of elements from jazz, classical, and blues blending naturally is also significant as the seed of the later Pentangle-esque folk-jazz style. It can be said to be a work preserving the sound document of North London's atmosphere in 1966.\n\n\n\nCommentary: All Days Editorial Department\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTracklisting:\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e1.
